Abstract
The electronic hand stamp (1) includes an inkjet printhead with nozzles directed toward a bottom side (4) of the electronic hand stamp (1), a control circuit (30) and a motion detector. The control circuit (30) is connected to the motion detector and to the inkjet printhead and configured to control the inkjet printhead in response to readings received from the motion detector. The electronic hand stamp (1) includes at least four indicator LEDs (10-17) connected to the control circuit (30). At least one of the at least four indicator LEDs (10-17) is arranged on every side perpendicular to the bottom side (4) of the electronic hand stamp (1).
Claims18
An electronic hand stamp comprising:
- a bottom side;
- an inkjet printhead with nozzles directed toward the bottom side;
- a control circuit;
- a motion detector, wherein the control circuit is connected to the motion detector and to the inkjet printhead and configured to control the inkjet printhead in response to readings received from the motion detector;
- at least four indicator LEDs connected to the control circuit, wherein the at least four indicator LEDs indicate an operating status of the electronic hand stamp, and wherein at least one of the at least four indicator LEDs is arranged on each of four sides of the electronic hand stamp perpendicular and adjacent to the bottom side;
- and
- a diffuser and all of the at least four indicator LEDs are optically connected with the diffuser;
- wherein the control circuit is configured to control interdependently the at least four indicator LEDs to together indicate one or more same signals concerning the operating status of the electronic hand stamp.
